opinions wanted
Your bike looks great with your current setup, but honestly its up to the rider to decide what style/size to go with. In the end you are going to be the one riding so go with what makes you happy.

You should leave it, that's asweet lookin scoot. But ultimately up to you.
If you do change let me know. One of the things I love about my Heritage over my old dyna is the fat front 16" tire. I only want fancier 16s on mine.

You have a beautiful nostalgia look going...but then you got gangster apes. Are you going to change other things to complement the 21 wheel style gangster look or would you be keeping everything the same? If no other changes then stay with what you have. If you are tired of the classic look and you want a more current set up then go for it.
Some day the 21in wheel fad may pass but for $400 bucks if it passes in 5 or 6 years then you had a cool look for little dough and if you keep the wheel you have now you can always go back.
I had Cragar SS wheels in the 80's...they are out of style now but I remember how bad *** it was back then and its some fond memories. Glad I did it.

I have to agree, take a shot at the 21, if you don't like it put the old wheel back on and sell the 21.

IMO, the 16" front wheel rides a lot better than a 21". It tracks way better in rain grooves and the front end feels much heavier with the 16". Which I personally like. To me the 16" feels much more stable. I do a lot of canyon riding and like having more rubber on the ground with the 16" as well.
Though a 21" looks good, the 16" looks great as well. So from a performance point, I highly prefer the 16", from a appearance point, either looks great.
Again, just my opinion, it will look & ride awesome either way
